Questioning the death date [18 March 2010]

I question the death date given of 1720 and would like to see some sources. I cannot find Lydia's death listed in Concord records, but the wording of her husband's death record makes it sound like she was still alive in 1724: Nathaniel Stow Husband to Lydia (his wife) Died November ye 12 : 1724 [in his 62nd yr. g.s.] --Jrich 22:27, 14 January 2009 (EST)


I agree and it is a date that has evaded my search so far. The date of 1720 was found in Family Trees on Ancestry. Until I find something more concrete, I have left it there.--Wheeler 21:52, 13 March 2009 (EDT)


Given that I removed the Family Trees on Ancestry as a source in line with various WeRelate conventions, I am removing the 1720 date too, especially since it seems very unlikely, and more likely to be bookkeeping confusion with the marriage date. --Jrich 19:28, 18 March 2010 (EDT)
